This is the best fish coating I have made and my husband says that it is the best he's eaten. I substituted the first three ingredients for 1/2 cup of milk because I didn't want to go to the store and couldn't find another recipe that doesn't call for milk. It turned out to be an awesome combination that hardly leaves a single crumb in the grease.

ingredients

¹⁄₄ cup melted unsalted butter
¹⁄₄ cup warm water
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 cup yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
salt and pepper
fish or vegetables, you want to fry
shortening, for frying

directions

Heat shortening in Dutch oven or deep fryer.
Beat together first four ingredients in a small bowl.
Mix the remaining ingredients in a pie pan.
Dip your fish or veggies in the wet mixture then dredge through dry mixture. (for thicker coating, do this step twice.).
Place coated pieces into hot grease and cook until done. I used a fry basket in a stew pot.
When thoroughly cooked, remove pieces to a wire rack to drain before serving.
